[Neuroblastoma in children. Results of the treatment and analysis of selected prognostic factors].
Results of treatment of 46 children within 6 months-16 years limits of age, with neuroblastoma hospitalized at the I-st Clinic of Children Diseases in Poznań, are presented. In 44 of patients the III-rd or IV-th stage of clinical advancement has been diagnosed, hence the analysis is concerned mainly with advanced forms of disease. 3 year survival of patients treated since 1985 with application of an intensive GPO-NBL programme appeared to be higher (p = 0.37 +/- 0.15) as compared with a group of children treated earlier (p = 0.17 +/- 0.07). The difference appeared however is not significant. Among analysed prognostic factors only age has been of importance. The probability of survival of younger children-below 2 years of a age (p = 64 +/- 0.23) is significantly higher as compared with older age group (p = 0.03 +/- 0.04).
